Default Hobbywing SCT PRO can get v3.1?

Hello to all,

I'm a newbie. Sorry for my English.

I own touring car in 1/10 scale.
Mistakenly, some months ago, I purchased a 120A Hobbywing pro sct ESC . I have read that it is designed for motors up to 6000kv.
Now I mount a 4.5t with 7100kv and I have the feeling of not being able to take full advantages from it.
Apart from the reduced settings of the ESC, I have a feeling that the engine does not push as much as if It were limited. I know that it's not a touring ESC.
I updated the firmware to the latest available (version 130814) because in the changelog it's written:
4 . Supports motors with higher KV .
But it is not written the number of KV.

Now, I am willing to buy the v3.1 but, before doing so, I wanted to ask you if it is possible to load the v3.1 firmware on the sct pro. I wanted to know if it is just a problem about software or electronics.

I also wanted to ask you if you confirm to me that this ESC will never push as v3.1 for touring cars?

Thank you.

The SCT pro was designed for off road and really with 3s-4s lipos.

No I don't believe you can put the v3.1 firmware on the SCT pro. Its got different hardware.

The v3 series will be a much better choice for tc as they have features that i doubt the sct series have. I have no doubts that the sct cant handle the motor though.
